you know they are desperate; trying to get right wing governments to buy in thier “surveillance AI” , plus trying to get them quickly approve the datacenters before people catch on that its polluting and just stealing resources from the locals. and the AMount of AI “STARTUP tech” events have also dramatically increased, 100% of tech conferences are just peddling some form of AI or another.
Trying and succeeding, Palantir and other companies have their hands all over the US government. And if you thought this government cared about things like “environment” or “people” –other than their votes– I have news for you…
palantir has been integrated with the military for a while, the AI thing is new though, why suddenly thiel/karp is making headlines, they know thier AI ISNT as useful as it is.
AI is as useful and necessary as 3D video, cryptocurrency, NFTs, The Cloud, and all the other fads. Note that all the fads have stuck around in one manner or another. LLMs will too.

Agreed I see some strong use for AI… just not everywhere, everything like it’s being shoved down our throats.
I think it would be funny to use as the boundary areas of a video game where AI just starts generating stuff, but it degrades and gets more and more weird the further out you get from the boundaries.
For the 3D video one, VR headsets perfected it. It’s actually awesome now. And looks the best on the newest devices like the Vision Pro.
But, VR devices are slow to catch on.
Anyway. I say this to just note that 3D movies and video has continued to improve despite the format supposedly being dead in the eyes of your average consumer. Apple currently has the largest 3D movie selection ever assembled from one vendor. And it’s the only place to watch 3D in 4K. Blu-ray does not have a standard/specification that supports it.
3D movies have been around for many many decades. And only recently have they become “perfected” from a visual fidelity POV. The hardware form factor needs more refinement though. I’m just reinforcing your point about how at least one of the technologies has not and will not go away.
They really are jumping the gun here. They need to prove that AI is as necessary and as useful as a utility. So far, they haven’t
The fact that they’re pushing for AI to be a utility when the fucking internet isn’t is just absurd.
Any of the companies framing it as a utility hope you don’t think too deeply about it.

Exactly!

AI being used as a tool for conglomeration? Absolutely.
AI used as a “tool” to make “art”? Fuck outta here.
or become a “Writer”
